Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Uhm, I guees just a general knowledge of the English language would be reasonable, as an expectation.
As a beta reader I'd say I'm pretty good...I always seem to spot things that could be improved and typos and such.
I don't know what a beta readin style is, but I only like to help writers write to the best of their ability, and to help when it's needed. ^^
I also like to help everyone avoid flames, especially from a certain person who we all seem to know. All fictions are worth saving from flames!
Not sure how it' meant to work so i'll add my email: scat (underscore) cat (underscore) 92 at hotmail dot com |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I take criticism on board -the constructive kind that is- and learn how to stylise and differenciate things. I'm good when it comes to fixing stuff that doesn't seem to make sense, or knowing what some one was aiming for even if the attempt has gone somewhere else.
I'm good at improving things to make a story shine ^^ |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Typos...or the general effect of not sleeping |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I prefer anything T and below...though I don't mind M...
I'm fine with Yaoi/Yuri/Crossovers...etc stories.
The best stories to help with are the underdogs; the stories that -to me- are brilliant, but don't get much recognition because the anime/manga it's from, get's updated so quickly it gets missed TT-TT. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Uhm...I guess the really horrible M stories which make my head spin from the damn detail (excluding language and violence)! XD Lol or fictions that are made to annoy people or bash the series they're writing about. |
